WLAN factory configuration

JACE-8000 WiFi capability is pre-configured by the factory as either “WLAN-enabled” or “WLAN-disabled”. For models that are factory configured as WLAN-enabled (e.g. JACE-8000-CSE-001 US, JACE-8000-CSE-002 WW ), additional steps must be taken to configure the adapter. Conversely, for models that are factory-configured as WLAN-disabled (e.g. JACE-8000-CSE-003 XX), WiFi is permanently disabled. The WLAN adapter cannot be used or configured.

You can verify the WLAN factory configuration either with the product packaging or via the Serial Shell. If disabled, the packaging will be labeled with “WLAN DISABLED”, or “JACE-8000-CSE-003”, or with both. If packaging is already removed, you can check the configuration using the Serial Shell.

  1. At the prompt in the Serial Shell Main Menu, type: ‘sh’.

    The shell $ prompt appears.

  2. At the $ prompt, type the command: wifi-skuread and press Enter.

    This will return the one of the following codes for your device. The returned code indicates the device’s WLAN capability:

    US =United States (WiFi enabled for the US only)

    WW = World Wide (WiFi enabled for countries other than the US)

    XX = Disabled (WiFi is permanently disabled)
